Staffing Update in the Office of the President

February 21, 2025

Dear Pitzer Community,

I am pleased to announce that, after a competitive national search, I have named Linda Mitchell as Executive Assistant to the President, effective March 3, 2025. As Executive Assistant to the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Dean of Faculty, Linda has demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and a strong commitment to Pitzer's mission. While the Dean’s Office will miss her, we are fortunate she is joining the team in the President’s Office and staying in the Pitzer community.

In her previous role, Linda played a key role in supporting the VP/Dean, as well as the Faculty Executive Committee. Her strong work ethic and knowledge have greatly benefited our community, and we are excited to see her bring the same energy and vision to her new role.

Please join me in congratulating and welcoming Linda to her new role. We look forward to her continued contributions and impact at Pitzer.

Sincerely,

Strom C. Thacker
President
